Blue Caprice

Lee, a teenager from Antigua, moves to the United States by himself due to his mother's work commitments. This major change marks the beginning of his journey into a new and challenging environment.

Upon arriving in Tacoma, Lee meets John, who becomes a father figure to him, and his girlfriend Angela. This new living arrangement introduces Lee to a family dynamic he has not experienced before.

During a jogging session with John, Lee is introduced to John's friend Ray, who subsequently teaches him about firearms. This moment sets the stage for Lee's unsettling involvement with guns.

As John encourages Lee to explore shooting, it quickly becomes clear that Lee has an exceptional talent as a marksman. This newfound skill takes a dark turn as it appears to foster a dangerous bond between Lee and John.

John faces difficulties due to a restraining order that separates him from his children, which leads to increased tension with Angela. This situation escalates, resulting in Angela throwing both John and Lee out of her home.

After being kicked out, John and Lee find refuge with Ray and his family. Lee's life takes a more dangerous turn when he discovers a hidden stockpile of firearms in Ray's basement.

Under John's manipulative influence, Lee commits his first murder by shooting a neighbor at point-blank range. This horrifying act marks Lee’s descent into a life of crime and violence.

Encouraged by John, Lee continues down a dark path, committing more murders, including that of a pub owner. Each act of violence is twisted into a rite of passage as he feels pressured to repay John's debts.

John and Lee embark on a month-long campaign of terror in Washington, D.C. Their spree involves Lee shooting randomly at victims from the trunk of a stolen car, contributing to an atmosphere of fear in the city.

As the brutal crimes unfold, the Montgomery County Police and the FBI initiate a serious investigation. The public is gripped by panic, highlighting the urgent need for law enforcement to intervene.

After ten months, John and Lee are finally cornered by law enforcement while parked illegally. This moment signifies the end of their crime spree that resulted in 17 fatalities and numerous injuries.

Five months after their apprehension, Lee finds himself in prison. He is approached by a lawyer who seeks to understand the motivations behind the killings, which adds to the complexity of his situation.

When questioned by the lawyer about the killings, Lee remains unyielding and instead queries, 'Where is my father?' This reflects his emotional turmoil and desperate need for paternal connection.
